      Not the best company for everyone.

      Pros

      Smart, fun people overall. Challenging work.

      Cons

      Some product paths are not well defined and always changing. The manager seemed to take on way too much project workload causing them to experiment way too often with the team makeup and responsibilities. Made a lead developer the QE manager, causing a clear conflict of interest and direction in test quality and results.

      Definitely not a good place to work

      Pros

      Product teams are motivated, talented and good to work with. Stock price has been moving up.

      Cons

      Middle management is awful....kiss up, kick down and almost always worried about themselves. HR is well meaning but incompetent and has no idea of how to align the organization with its values. The IT group is run in a dictatorial fashion and has become an unproductive rat's nest.

      A continuously evolving company with strong DNA

      Pros

      If you examine the DNA and history of this company, you can rest assured that Adobe will be around for a long time. They have strong values, great focus on taking care of employees and doing the right thing. Holistically, they are very adaptable for a company so large, adjusting and transitioning to new markets and opportunities as they arise.

      Cons

      The larger this company grows, the harder it is for it to be nimble enough for fast growth markets. This size in a traditional management structure creates a lot of management overhead that ends up being a burden/more confusing in terms of establishing a clear direction and vision for the company's future. The annual round of layoffs is quite inefficient and threatens to eliminate lots of great talent within the company.
